My Project

In this project, the students will get a chance to decorate the classroom as busy bees of learning. This environment will help motivate their mind to be eager to learn and have a positive mindset as busy bees.

The students are busy learning the new environment in a large school setting coming from a headstart to PreK.

The students are such proud little individuals ready for the world of learning as busy bees. Busy bees of Prek will show the world that they are busy learning great things and will be ready for kindergarten.
